Valiant and proud lefties election night thread

[MarionCole]

Here at last, work, DGC, been out in the garden to get some calm, now here with DP & SIL, (who has fallen out with absolutely everyone at work, esp twat who defaced her Human Rights Poster from Liberty )

Drinking gin & have made fab wild garlic potato & leek thing from Riverford to sustain us.

I'll read back through the thread so I can have a giggle & a cry, have been weeping quietly on & off all day started me off with 'Jimmy Carr is indeed a cunt', laughing, that is!

As if that were ever not the case with Tories.

Look exit polls got it wrong in 92. There's still hope

Where are these exit polls coming from? It thought they were not allowed?

Hello.

The very idea of having that plum David Cameron representing us internationally and being let loose on the country makes my brain hurt a lot

Are you kidding, Hassled? Blerg to Derek Hatton - I may be a leftie, but was a schoolchild in Liverpool when DH was in power, and hated him.

Sat in a theatre surrounded by him and his mates once. Was a hideous experience.

My mumsnet keeps crashing. Is it just meeeee?

Yes yes, 92! 92!

Here you all are.

Valiant, proud, deluded and planning to get drunk to dull the pain.

I feel I have come home.

can we please decide NOT to abbreviate Derek Hatton to DH? It's very confusing for the hard of understanding like me.

Rod Liddle is looking FAT!

IBTP is a feminist blog called "I Blame The Patriarchy". It is very witty, incisive and right on the money.

Molesworth you are shitting us?
39%?

I'd better watch some election coverage.

oh lolol at DH Derek Hatton

Let's call him D-Hatz

S'worse onebat: another poll at 44% Tory...

fuck it. i'm having a fag.

i can't take this.

what if it's a hung parliament and labour asks the queen to dissolve it? or do you think he'll name a successor?

oh god.

Wine is poured.

Jimmy Carr is indeed a cunt.

Rumbling row with dh (floating voter) has escalated to:

Dh: My foot really hurts where I stood on that Lego this morning

Me: Get fucking used to it, there'll be no NHS tomorrow.

Dh: When exactly did you turn into Rik from the Young Ones?

Need to muster up energy to go and take contacts out, put beer in fridge and flop in front of telly with laptop. This is the first election night since 1992 (was 11!) where I won't get plastered as bfing. Parents allowed several beers and an impromptu 3am party at our neighbour's house in 1997. I was nearly 18.

My DH is, coincidentally, Derek Hatton - now that's confusing!

44%????????????????????????????????????????nooo

Pfft futile it will be like Matrix 2 there will be a million other WaxyDaves waiting in the wings

Ah, Rik from the Young Ones

I talked in the office about Alan B'Stard the other day and no-one knew what I meant
